In this episode of 'It’s Notts Just Physio', we’re joined by Danny Donnelly - a passionate and multi-talented adult nursing student whose journey bridges creativity, care, and community. As a musician, producer, and accessibility consultant, Danny brings a unique perspective to their work as a student nurse, carer, and researcher. Their projects are grounded in empathy and innovation, all with the aim of making spaces more inclusive and connected.

Their mission is simple: to amplify unheard voices, create nurturing spaces, and inspire positive change through creativity and care.

Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England and supported through generous donations from the University of Nottingham alumni, staff, students and friends through Cascade funding.
